Exim delivers the first 10 messages in a SMTP connection, and then
queues the remaining messages for delivery next time the queue is run
(once every 15 minutes by default).

Exim. This is a real PITA when my dialin system decides to try to
deliver several hundred messages to the system where I read my mail.
